In this report, Technavio analysts highlight the growing demand for water treatment as a key factor contributing to the growth of the global hypochlorous acid market:
Growing demand for water treatment
Hypochlorous acid is used for wastewater treatment. It is used as an oxidizing and a disinfectant agent. It is preferred in the water treatment industry because of the convenience of storage, transport, and use. Apart from this, cost-effectiveness and non-toxicity to humans and animals are factors that contribute to its increased use. Furthermore, it is an effective microbicide, particularly against waterborne pathogens. Owing to these factors, there is a high demand for hypochlorous acid from the water treatment industry. This is catering to the growth of the global market.
Hypochlorous acid is mainly used as a biocide because of its anti-microbial properties and as a chlorinating agent. It assists in treating cyanide contamination of industrial water. The increasing awareness among people, growing demand for clean water, and increase in production of industrial wastewater have led to high demand for hypochlorous acid.
According to a senior analyst at Technavio for specialty chemicals, “The global water treatment market is growing substantially. Growing water scarcity, gradual drop in the amount of clean drinking water, and increase in industrial activities have led to water contamination. These are the factors driving the growth of the water treatment market.”
